Go to bios setup by pressing f2 and check that the "internal camera" is enabled.

Get the webcam software from the website. If they have windows 7 software supported you should be fine. It they are giving software for windows xp only then it will not work. Bottom Line go on the website and install the webcam software again.

You're seeing blown-out highlights. These are the portions of your photos that have been so overexposed that they've gone pure white, losing all detail. The camera doesn't know whether you were deliberately going for this effect, but this is generally considered a bad thing and so the camera is warning you about it. The proper fix is to use exposure compensation to reduce exposure and shoot again to bring back the highlight details. This risks losing details in the shadows as they go pure black, but this is generally considered not as bad. After all, we don't expect to see details in the dark.

That was the long answer. The short answer is to press up/down on the multiselector to cycle through the different views of your photo until you see one you prefer.

You're seeing blown-out highlights. These are the portions of your pictures which have been overexposed so much that all detail has been lost. If printed, they will show up as pure white, without a hint of shading.

The "correct" fix is to reduce the exposure by using exposure compensation to bring back the details. Blocked-up shadows (the same thing at the other end of the brightness scale, where dark objects go pure black) is generally considered less harmful to the final image.

That was the long answer. The short answer is: Press up/down on the multiselector to cycle through the different views available.

Try to print something that is pure yellow and pure black. Set it to BEST PHOTO. If you see gaps or missing lines, your print head could be clogged. You will need to use a cleaning solution to remove the clog.

The below steps are to enable your webcam standalone...i.e. not with some application like gtalk or yahoo messanger.
1. In right bottom side of your computer screen you will get an icon called "Dell Webcam Manager".
2. Double click and open it.
3. Click on Webcam Center
4. Under "Photo Capture" Tab click on Start.

Your webcam is enabled and will show your photo.
